The hike to Upper Yosemite Falls in Yosemite National Park has a section of switchbacks that seem daunting, but lead to the most incredible views and amazing waterfall. This shawl is composed of it’s own switchbacks, in lace form, zig zagging back and forth as the shawl grows and grows. It’s comprised of 8 row repeats, and while written out in a certain repetition, they can be modified to create your own custom zig-zag pattern.

This shawl is worked on the bias from one
corner to the opposite edge. The chevron zig-zag is created by alternating
between two different charts and the number of times you repeat the charts
increases as the shawl gets larger.
